VF35 from newage STi 2003 ~ Approx 340
TD05 Approx 360 but a bit laggy
TD05-18G Approx 380 ish
TD05-20G Approx 400+

They all require the neccessary supporting mods to reach the approx power figures quoted.

PM me if any takes your fancy.

Just remember to shop around for prices, not to mention experience

You can 'just about' get there on the std turbo if mapped on the edge and using octane booster but this is not practical for most users.

Nice plug andy!

But seriously, have looked at your site before. Am definately interested in a hybrid.

The td04 hybrid looks good for an easy quick spool 300/300. If i wanted higher ie the 320 you show on your site will it be at the limit of the map?

The car must still be able to cope with the odd tank of 95ron as i drive alot and have been stuck in the middle of nowhere before now with only 95 available. Hence the need for a not too aggressive map.

In that case would I be better with a slightly bigger turbo? Maybe a td05 16 or 18?

I've seen the figures for these but how much laggier are they for real world driving? Is it noticeable?
